Welcome to Blockstream Talk number seven. Our conversation today is with Tuur Demeester. I always really enjoy my conversations with Tuur because not only does he have a really good understanding of macro markets and Bitcoin, but his analysis always brings a really unique and interesting historical perspective. I think that can be particularly valuable when we zoom out and think about where Bitcoin and Bitcoin linked investment products are going and how they'll impact legacy markets and really the world in general. So I was keen to get to his thoughts on a couple of subjects, his initial impressions of El Salvador's Bitcoin Bonds, if and how Bitcoin cycles are changing, as well as Bitcoin backed mortgages and the types of financial products we're likely to see emerging as Bitcoin goes mainstream. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share the video. I hope you enjoy the conversation.
